3-axis CNC machining center GPC

verticalgantrywith moving table

Vertical gantry machining centre with fixed gantry and moving machine table as X-axis. Y- and Z-axis are built on the gantry girder. All base structures of the machine consist of high-quality heat treated cast iron. The machine structure having been calculated by means of Finite Elements Analysis (FEA) is perfectly ribbed and guarantees extreme rigidity. The gantry girder and the two vertical columns are made out of one piece (Y = 1,600 mm). The machine is equipped with precise and high-capacity linear guides in all three axes. The axes are driven by ball srews. All moving parts of the machine are lubricated by an automatic central lubrication system. The tool magazine and tool changer are mounted in parallel in the X-axis and are detached in the work area. Tools are being changed in a fixed X-position in the topmost Z-axis position. Tool change system with chain magazine and dual gripper. To change the tool which is lying horizontally in the chain magazine it is being brought into vertical position. At the same time, the dual gripper picks the new tool as well as the one sitting in the spindle and changes the tools by making a 180° turn. High cutting performances in almost every material can be achieved by means of the built-in high-power spindle with 2-speed gearbox. The ball bearings are lifetime grease-lubricated. Additional equipment such as full work area enclosure with roof, telescopic covers in all axes, coolant unit with rinsing nozzles and bed rinsing as well as a chip removal, perfectly adapted to the performance class, are completing the machine.
